Vacation pictures & writing update

Writing update:
As I mentioned last week, For King and Country is in editors’ hands. I didn’t write one word – not one! However, I did have the opportunity to read Chapter 1 to three librarian friends at the conference (NASIG) I attended. I left them wanting more. MWAHAHAHA!!

It’s been a nice break from writing and revising, but I am itching to get feedback on the manuscript. I’ll bide my time. I have plenty to keep me busy: researching Book 3 of Battle Scars, working with the cover artist for Book 2, writing the book blurb, an author’s note, acknowledgements, etc., and continuing to market Men of the Cross.

Vacation time:
Three days vacation preceded the work-related part of my trip. I visited family in Virginia and returned to Monticello, drove along the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway, stopped to picnic and walk a (tiny) bit of the Appalachian Trail, and stopped at a lovely winery to taste test some wine. Enjoy these pictures and have a great week.
